goal is for this rig to win a car-show we're having in our local club. and for it to be fairly capable too. well capable as far as c1 rigs go

I will definitely update the thread as soon as i get some more pics of the body from ser3100

I was wondering when I would see this thread pop up. Got me excited thinking you had the body back already. From one build to the next

ser3100 sent me some progress pics today! looking GOOD!
we have tube fenders front and rear, half doors, and some armor











this is pretty close to what it will look like once ser3100 is finished with it. I will probably paint it white though. color is still up in the air though.

Looking killer heinie. Looking forward to the gcm chassis mount parts. I used them on the wife's Landy. Really cleaned up the chassis in my opinion.

Ser3100 called me yesterday. Said it's almost done. The cage is almost done. Might get some pics from him in the next day or two

Unfortunately the comp was delayed to the next weekend. And I had already switched my work Saturdays from the original comp Saturday to the next Saturday.

So I couldnt go. Had to work :(

Still took 3rd in the People's Choice Car Show which was really really cool!!

I love the half doors, E is doing a great job.


Who won if it was not you heinie? It must have been that nice honey badger jeep I assume.

I think that Flat-Bed-Fred won. That was the maroon colored honcho with tubework with like 23 votes. Then the honey badger jeep with 21. Then my FJ with 18. That jeep was so sick. so many custom made carbon fiber pieces and what not. way more advanced than my FJ, but i guess enough people thought the FJ looked good enough to vote for me!
